Shopify Subscriptions
Adding subscriptions to your Shopify store is the fastest way to build predictable, recurring revenue. With Beez, you can turn any product into a subscription in minutes — with flexible billing cycles, automated customer management, and zero transaction fees. Whether you're selling coffee, supplements, skincare, or pet food, Beez makes it effortless to offer subscribe & save on Shopify.
Subscription commerce is growing 100% year-over-year. Merchants with subscription programs see 2-3x higher customer lifetime value (LTV), 40% lower acquisition costs (returning subscribers don't need re-acquisition), and predictable monthly recurring revenue (MRR) that makes forecasting and inventory planning dramatically easier. For Shopify stores selling consumable products, subscriptions are no longer optional — they're essential for competing with DTC giants.
Beez integrates natively with Shopify's checkout using app blocks — no code changes required. Once installed, you can add subscription options to any product in minutes. Customers see a clear "Subscribe & Save" widget on the product page, choose their delivery frequency, and check out using Shopify's native checkout. From there, everything is automated: billing, notifications, retries, and customer self-service.
Incentivize customers to subscribe by offering percentage discounts on recurring orders. With Beez, you can set subscribe & save discounts (typically 10-20% off) that apply automatically. Customers see the savings clearly on the product page, making the subscription option compelling. You can also tier discounts based on frequency — reward customers who choose shorter delivery cycles with higher savings.
Reduce support tickets by 80% with Beez's customer portal. Subscribers can manage everything themselves: change delivery frequency, skip their next order, pause for vacation, swap products, update payment details, change shipping address, or cancel. The portal is accessible directly from the customer's Shopify account page, providing a seamless branded experience.
Failed payments are the #1 cause of involuntary churn in subscription businesses. Beez's smart dunning system automatically retries failed charges on optimal schedules, sends customer notifications with one-click payment update links, and can recover up to 40% of otherwise-lost revenue. No manual intervention required.
The Shopify subscription app market includes Recharge ($99/mo + 1%+19¢ per transaction), Bold Subscriptions (1% fee, not Built for Shopify), Appstle (2.5% transaction fee), Seal Subscriptions (limited features), and Loop Subscriptions. Beez differentiates with zero transaction fees, built-in bundle functionality, free gift thresholds, and a generous free plan with full feature access. For most Shopify merchants, Beez offers the best value-to-feature ratio.
Beez is rated the #1 subscription app on Shopify with a 5.0/5 rating. It offers the most complete feature set (subscriptions + bundles + free gifts) with zero transaction fees and a free plan. Alternatives include Recharge ($99/mo + fees), Appstle (2.5% fees), and Seal (limited features).
Beez offers a free plan with full feature access and zero transaction fees. Paid plans start at $19/month for higher subscriber limits. Compare this to Recharge at $99-$499/month plus 1%+19¢ per transaction, or Appstle at $10-$100/month plus 2.5% transaction fees.
Yes. Beez offers a free plan that includes full subscribe & save functionality, customer portal, dunning, and analytics — with zero transaction fees. No credit card required to start.
Shopify offers a basic native subscription app (free), but it lacks advanced features like bundles, free gifts, tiered discounts, smart dunning, email automation, and a full customer portal. Most growing brands use a dedicated app like Beez for more control and features.
Beez offers one-click migration from Recharge. It automatically imports your active subscribers, subscription plans, billing dates, and product configurations. The process takes minutes with zero downtime for your customers.
Consumable and replenishable products work best: coffee, supplements, skincare, pet food, cleaning supplies, baby products, protein powder, vitamins, and similar items that customers need to reorder regularly. Beez supports subscriptions on any Shopify product.
Beez is Built for Shopify certified and uses app blocks that work with all Online Store 2.0 themes. No code changes required — just add the subscription widget via the theme editor.
When a subscription payment fails, Beez automatically retries the charge on an intelligent schedule (e.g., 1 day, 3 days, 5 days later). It simultaneously sends the customer an email with a one-click link to update their payment details. This recovers up to 40% of failed payments automatically.
